Synology DS1019+ offers a refined, well-balanced, powerful and energy efficient NAS server. Do you really need the extra 5th bay and 8GB of memory though? As a consumer that is not easy to make choice. Also, do you need server like functionality and perfo...

Due to its strong similarities to last year's DS918+, the DS1019+ isn't particularly exciting. Rather, it's a solid expansion of Synology's "Plus" lineup that adds an extra drive bay for those who felt constrained by the 918+ and gives you the RAM upgrade...

We like the new design of the DS918+; it matches up well with other higher end NAS units from Synology. If you need to expand capacity, adding a DX517 with five more bays matches the design of the DS918+ very well.For those streaming media, the Synology D...
For the right environment, the DSM can provide a private or hybrid cloud business solution as a server replacement. Certainly the heart and soul is in the right place even if it is not as full featured as some other offerings. The ability to expand with a...
Overall the Synology DiskStation DS916+ is pretty much a typical Synology incremental upgrade. The hardware has been substantially improved, but the overall design of the unit is very similar to its predecessors. That said, the Synology 4-Bay NAS design i...
